Bill Pulte’s Family Ties to The Family Network Raise Questions About His DNI Pick
An investigative piece traces two generations of Bill Pulte’s family to The Family (a secretive Fellowship Foundation) and its global political network, noting a close relationship between his grandfather and Doug Coe and extensive Michigan ties. It finds no public evidence of direct links from Bill Pulte himself to The Family, but argues the network’s influence—through philanthropy, religious charities, and political circles—could be relevant as he steps into a top role in overseeing the U.S. intelligence community.
